Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, but we were able to see many fish, sharks, and sea turtles. I think the water clarity would be even better on a sunny day.

What was lucky was that we spotted a pod of dolphins from the boat on the way to the submarine.

Additionally, the guide's Japanese was very good and impressive. Above all, riding a submarine is a unique experience, and I believe this is a wonderful tour that allows people of all ages to enjoy water leisure in Hawaii. I especially recommend it for small children and elderly people who do not dive or snorkel.

残念ながらお天気が良くはなかったのですが、
たくさんのお魚やサメ、ウミガメも見られました。
天気がよいときっともっと水の透明度もいいのかな　と思います。

ラッキーだったのは、潜水艦に行くまでのボートからイルカの群れが見えた事。

あとはガイドの方の日本語もとても上手で素晴らしかったです。
なにより潜水艦に乗るなんてなかなか無い体験ですし、
せっかくのハワイで年齢に関わらずウォーターレジャーを楽しめるとても良いツアーだと思います。
特にダイビングやシュノーケルをしない　小さなお子さんやご年配の方に是非オススメです。

It was rainy on this day, but on the contrary, it was nice because we could still have fun despite the rain. The pool with the dolphins is slightly heated. The photos can be taken beautifully. The prices are a bit high, but I think it's worth going. You can also see sea turtles and seals, among other things.

この日は雨でしたが、逆に雨でも遊べるので良かったです。イルカのいるプールは少し温水です。写真はキレイに撮ってもらえます。販売価格は多少高いですが、行く価値はあると思います。他にも海がめ・アザラシなど見られます。

There are some things to confirm in Japanese.
I don't understand Japanese.

The boat sways a lot, so I think motion sickness medication is necessary.
However, we were immediately taken back to the boat on our first attempt, while other foreign guests received a service where they were dropped into the sea once.
It might be by request, so it could be worth trying.
I wish I had studied English a bit more!

確認事項は、日本語であります。
日本語は通じません。

船がよく揺れるので、酔い止めは必要だと思います。
ただ、一番目の私たちは船にすぐに戻されましたが、他の外国の方は、一度海に落としてもらうサービスを受けてました。
リクエスト式かもしれないので、いってみるといいかもしれません。
英語もう少し勉強しとけば良かったです！

I participated in this tour with my mother. We were looking forward to horseback riding and garlic shrimp in Haleiwa Town. We visited the "This Tree, What Tree" Moanalua Gardens and Dole Plantation, and then had free time in Haleiwa Town, which we were excited about. I had heard that there were frozen garlic shrimp, but I really wanted to try the fresh garlic shrimp. After researching beforehand, I found that Giovanni's or Macky's looked delicious, so I asked the tour guide which one to choose, and it turns out only Macky's has fresh shrimp, so I was glad I asked! It was very delicious! Macky's is located a bit far from the meeting point, and since we only had an hour of free time, I thought we might just have time for lunch, but everyone wanted to go to Macky's, so they kindly took us there. I was happy they were flexible in accommodating us. After eating, they took us back to the meeting point, and we were able to stroll around Haleiwa Town a little. However, I think if we had a bit more time, we could have visited more shops.

The seaside horseback riding was very enjoyable with a nice breeze. The tour guide provided proper English explanations for the horseback riding, so I was able to experience it without any worries. There was a short steep slope along the way that was a bit scary when we had to trot, but as long as you hold on properly, there were no problems. My 59-year-old mother was a little anxious during her second horseback ride, but I think she enjoyed it.

At the very end of the horseback riding, it suddenly started to rain heavily, which made the final photo opportunity and farewell to the horses a bit rushed, which was unfortunate. But the horseback riding was fun and very satisfying. It was a bit disappointing that we couldn't stop at the sea turtle beach due to the heavy rain.

The tour guide provided detailed explanations and shared various stories, so the travel was never boring. The views from the North Shore were amazing! Participating in this tour created wonderful memories of Hawaii!

母と二人で参加しました。
乗馬とハレイワタウンでのガーリックシュリンプを楽しみにこのツアーに参加しました。
この木なんの木のモアナルアガーデン、ドールプランテーションに寄り、楽しみにしていたハレイワタウンでの自由時間です。冷凍エビのガーリックシュリンプもあると聞いていたので、是非生のエビのガーリックシュリンプが食べたいと思っていました。事前に調べていったところ、ジョバンニかマッキーズが美味しそうだったので、どちらにしようか添乗員さんに聞いたところマッキーズだけ生のエビらしいので、聞いてよかった～！です。とっても美味しくいただけました！マッキーズは集合場所から離れたところにあるので、自由時間は一時間なので昼食だけで終わっちゃうかなと思っていましたが、参加者全員マッキーズに行きたいとのことで、そこまで送っていただけました。臨機応変に対応して下さってうれしかったです。食後にはまた集合場所まで連れて行ってくれて、ハレイワタウンを少し散策できました。でももう少し時間があったらもっといろんなお店にいけたかなと思います。
海辺乗馬は風が気持ちよくとっても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
英語での乗馬の説明も添乗員さんがちゃんと通訳してくれて何の不安もなく体験できました。
途中急な短い坂道が一か所あるのですが、小走りになってちょっと怖いところがありますが、ちゃんと摑まっていれば何の問題ありませんでした。二回目の乗馬で５９歳の母が少し不安がっていましたが、楽しめていたと思います。
乗馬の最後の最後に強めの雨が急に降ってきて、最後の記念撮影や、馬とのお別れがささっとなってしまったのが残念でした。でも乗馬は楽しく大満足です。
その後のウミガメのビーチには大雨で寄ることができなかったのは少し残念です。
添乗員さんは詳しい説明や、色々な話をしてくださり、移動は退屈することはありませんでした。ノースショアの車窓からの景色は最高でした！
このツアーに参加して楽しいハワイの思い出ができました！

We participated as a group of four: my 10-year-old son, my 65-year-old mother, my husband, and myself. We chose this plan based on my mother's wish to go horseback riding, but my son ended up completely falling in love with it and didn't want to get off the horse, saying he wanted to go around again. The 90-minute ride through the mountains, with ups and downs, was very enjoyable, and the horses were very well-behaved. If we go to Hawaii again, we will definitely participate again.

１０歳の息子と６５歳の母と私たち夫婦の４人で参加しました。
乗馬がしたいという母の希望でこのプランを選びましたが、息子がすっかり乗馬にはまってしまい、馬から降りるのが嫌だ、もう一周行きたいと言い出した程です。
山の中を登りあり下りありの９０分、馬たちはとてもおりこうでとても楽しかったです。
またハワイに行くことがあれな次回もぜひ参加させていただきます。

I experienced this with my 10-year-old daughter and her friend during Christmas. This was my third time horseback riding in Hawaii, and the scenery, the horses, and the trainers were all amazing! I don't think there's any other horseback riding experience like this, walking along the beach!

クリスマスに１０歳の娘と娘の友達と体験しました。
ハワイで乗馬は３度目ですが景色といい、馬といい、そしてトレーナーの方も最高でした！
海辺を散歩する、こんな乗馬は他には無いのでは？？

Famous from the commercials, we headed to Moanalua Garden and then to Dole Plantation. I was looking forward to lunch, enjoying garlic shrimp with flavors that appeal to Japanese tastes. One of the highlights this time was horseback riding along the beach at Turtle Bay Resort. While watching people surfing, I enjoyed a leisurely ride, listening to the chirping of birds in the forest—such a blissful time. We also encountered a large sea turtle at Laniakea Beach (we stayed within 3 meters of the turtle). It was a tour that made me feel the greatness of nature. Our guide was also fun and full of interesting topics, leaving no time for family squabbles.

ＣＭで有名なモアナルアガーデン〜ドールプランテーションへ。 楽しみな昼食、ガーリックシュリンプ(エビ)日本人好みの味つけ。 今回の楽しみな一つ、タートルベイリゾート内の海辺乗馬、サーフィンされている方を横目に並足乗馬、小鳥の囀りを聞きながら森林乗馬、至福の時間でした。そしてラニアケアビーチで大きな海亀と遭遇(亀とは3㍍以内近付かない)大自然の凄さを感じたツアーでした。 ガイドさんも楽しく話題豊富で親子喧嘩の暇なしでした。

We participated as a couple with pickup from our hotel in Waikiki. We were so excited to see them up close! It seems that the sharks come closer when they hear the sound of the boat's engine, thinking they might get food, but there was no danger of them attacking. Although Japanese was not spoken on the boat or during the pickup, we were able to communicate somewhat through basic conversation. There is a Japanese translation guide on the boat.

Many people mention seasickness, but I took motion sickness medicine beforehand, so I didn't feel sick at all. It should be fine once you get used to it, but the waves can be quite strong. They ask if you want to film underwater videos. For $65, you get about 10 minutes of MP4 footage on an SD card and a bonus DVD, and after the tour, you can buy an original T-shirt for $30, both of which accept credit cards. You don't have to buy them, but I recommend it as a nice keepsake.

Also, it's definitely better to bring a disposable underwater camera. They were selling them on the boat, but since they don't speak Japanese, it's probably best to bring your own. I took a cheap waterproof digital camera I bought in Japan.

I wanted to do some sightseeing on the North Shore, but since the tour ends with immediate return to Waikiki, it might be a good idea for those familiar with Hawaii to rent a car. There seemed to be places nearby where you could park for free. Additionally, we were lucky enough to see a whale, making it a great tour!

ワイキキのホテルからの送迎付きで夫婦で参加しました。
さわれそうな距離で見られて大興奮！
船のエンジン音を聞きつけて餌がもらえると思い、鮫が寄ってくるそうですが襲ってくるような危険さはありませんでした。
送迎も船も日本語は通じませんが、なんとなくの会話で意思疎通は出来ました。
船に日本語訳の説明書はあります。
皆さん書かれている船酔いですが、酔い止めを事前に飲んだので全く船酔いはなし。慣れれば大丈夫ですが揺れは結構大きいです。
船上で水中動画撮影は必要かと聞かれます。SDカードにMP4で10分程度とおまけDVD付きで65＄、終了後にオリジナルTシャツ30＄、いずれもクレジットカードOKです。
買わなくていいけど記念になるので購入おすすめです。
あと、水中カメラは使い捨てでもいいので持っていった方が絶対いいです。船上でも販売はあったそうですが日本語が通じないので持参のほうがいいかも。私は日本で買った安い防水デジカメを持っていきました。
ノースショアで観光もしたかったのですが終われば即ワイキキへ送迎なので、ハワイ慣れしている人はレンタカーで行くのもいいかもしれないです。近くに無料で停められそうなところはありました。
あと、運よく鯨も出現して、いいツアーになりました。

The parasailing, which I was looking forward to the most on this trip, truly became my best memory. There were two staff members: one was the pilot and the other helped us with the equipment and took photos. We shared the boat with five other groups, but we were the only Japanese, and since the initial explanation was in English, I felt quite anxious before flying because I didn't understand anything. However, the staff member who helped with the equipment checked on me, asking, "Are you okay?" which was very considerate.

Once we took off, I felt like, "This is fun! This feels great!" and my spirits soared. The boat was quite rocky, so it was definitely the right choice to take motion sickness medication. I absolutely want to fly again on my next trip to Hawaii! It was amazing!

今回の旅で一番楽しみにしていたパラセイリングでしたが、本当に一番の思い出となりました。スタッフは2人で一人は操縦する人でもう一人は器具をつけてくれたりカメラを取ってくれたりする人。私たちの他に5組の人と同じボードでしたが日本人は私たちだけで、最初の説明が英語だったので全く分からず飛ぶ前はかなり不安な気持ちになりましたが器具をつけてくれるスタッフが「ダイジョウブ？」とか気遣いをしてくれたりしました。
いざ飛んでしまえば「楽しい！気持ちいい！」と4なり気持ちもはじけました。
ボートはかなり揺れるので、酔い止めを飲んでいて正解でした。
次回のハワイの旅の時にも絶対飛びたいです！最高でした！

The food was delicious. Since it was a buffet style, I ended up eating too much. The dance was also sophisticated and impressive. It was standard, but the seats were only about one meter farther from the stage than those of non-standard guests, and there was no difference in the food. The standard seating was fine. I was surprised by how many people were in the audience.

　料理が美味しい．ビュッフェスタイルなので食べ過ぎてしまう。ダンスも洗練されていて迫力があった．スタンダードでしたが，座る席がスタンダードでない人より1メートルほどステージから遠いだけで料理も違いはなかった.スタンダードでよかった．観客が非常に多かったのには驚いた．

I chose the 150m option. The time in the air was about 5 minutes, which was short, but I enjoyed the time cruising to the ocean with the other participants.

150mをチョイス。空での時間は5分んぐらいで短いですが、他の参加者達と沖までクルーズしてる時間も楽しかったです

Since my child loves animals, we decided to go horseback riding as a family. Based on reviews mentioning the beautiful scenery, we chose the horseback riding experience at Kualoa Ranch.

We were a bit anxious since we had to gather at the ranch individually, but fortunately, we passed by the ranch on a sightseeing bus we took the day before. Our family rented a car to get there, but it seemed like some people arrived by bus.

In March, the weather in Hawaii can be unpredictable, and it turned out that we rode in heavy rain that morning. Luckily, it cleared up in the afternoon, and the scenery became even more magical. As we swayed on the horse's back in the vast ranch, which has been used for many movie shoots, I felt like I could forget where I was.

Perhaps because the ranch staff had worked in the rain that morning, some of them had a slightly arrogant attitude from a Japanese perspective, but most were kind and helpful. However, I think it would be beneficial to be somewhat accustomed to listening to English. The height of the horse's back was higher than I imagined, and it might be a bit challenging to control the horse while listening to English instructions.

子供が動物大好きなので家族で乗馬をすることにしました。景色がきれいというクチコミから、クアロア牧場の乗馬体験に決めました。

牧場までは各自で集合なので不安だったのですが、たまたま前日参加した島内観光バスで牧場の前を通ったので良かったです。私たち家族はレンタカーを借りて行きましたが、バスで来ている人もいるようでした。

３月のハワイは天気については運次第なので、この日の午前中は土砂降りの雨の中を乗馬したそうです。幸い午後は曇りとなり、むしろ一層景色が幻想的になり、たくさんの映画のロケに使われているという広大な牧場の中を馬の背中に揺られていると、自分が一体どこにいるのか忘れてしまいそうな錯覚に陥りました。

牧場の人々は午前中に雨の中で仕事をしたせいか、日本人の感覚からするとちょっと横柄な態度の人もいましたが、大部分の人は親切に教えてくれました。ただ、ある程度英語のリスニングに慣れていた方がいいかと思いました。馬の背中は想像以上に高く、英語の指示を聞きながら馬を操るのは少し難しいかもしれないです。

I heard that this is the only outdoor luau show near Waikiki, so I signed up. Although I had a standard seat, the venue itself isn't very large, so it was quite impressive and worth watching. When I arrived at the meeting place just before 5 PM, participants were already lined up waiting to enter, but since I was one of the early ones, I was guided to the very front seat of the standard section. I think it's better to arrive early since those who come first get seated closer to the front.

While waiting for the show to start, there were activities like bracelet making and tattoo experiences, which made the kids very happy. From the venue, we could see the sunset over the ocean, which was very beautiful.

As for the food, I had high expectations because it was "Hilton," but I think it was decent for a buffet dinner included with the show. A downside was that I had to wait in a long line when I went to get the food initially. Since it seemed like there wouldn't be a shortage of food, it might have been better to relax at my seat and enjoy drinks until the line disappeared.

ワイキキ近辺で野外でのルアウショーはここだけと聞いて申し込みました。
スタンダードシートでしたが、会場自体がそれほど広くないので、十分に迫力があり見ごたえがありました。５時すこし前に集合場所に行くとすでに参加者が並んで入場を待っていましたが、早い方だったのでスタンダードシートの一番前の席に案内していただけました。早い人から前の席に案内してもらえるので、早めに行った方がいいと思います。
ショーが始まるまでの待ち時間は、ブレスレット作りやタトゥーの体験などが出来て、子どもが喜んでいました。会場からは海に沈む夕日が見えて、とてもきれいでした。
料理は『ヒルトンだから』と期待していたほどではなかったけれど、ディナーつきショーのブッフェディナーとしては、まずまずだと思います。最初に料理をもらいに行くときに、かなり並ばなければなかったのがマイナス点。料理がなくなることはなさそうだったので、列がなくなるまで席でゆっくりドリンクを飲んで待ってたらよかったのかもしれません。

I participated in this tour because I wanted to experience horseback riding. It was a lot of fun with not just horseback riding, but also a visit to the Dole Plantation and sea turtles among many other activities! The guide shared various experiences and explanations during the drive, making the journey enjoyable as well.

It was my first time riding, and I was quite nervous, but the instructor was there to help, and the horse was calm, so it turned out to be better than I expected. The scenery along the coast was beautiful, but I didn't have much opportunity to enjoy it, so next time I want to take more time to appreciate the views!

今回、乗馬体験がしたくてこのツアーに参加しました。乗馬だけじゃなく、ドールプランテーションやウミガメ等盛りだくさんの内容でとても楽しかったです！
ガイドさんが車中いろんな体験談や説明をしてくれて移動中も楽しかったです。
乗馬は初めてでかなり緊張したけど、インストラクターが付いてくれたし、馬も大人しくて思ってたより大丈夫でした☆景色も海沿いを歩いてとてもキレイだったけど、景色をみる余裕があまりなかったので、今度はもっと景色を楽しみたいと思います(^^)

My girlfriend and I had an enjoyable ride through Kualoa Ranch on 12/30/13. Our guides were Kai and Karissa ( I believe I got the names right). The terrain in which you ride through is beautiful, it takes your breath away. We learned the history of the ranch and about what has taken place there over the years. Would definitely recommend this to anyone!!

I purchased only the tickets and went by rental car. Since I had gone horseback riding before, this time I headed to Secret Island. After about a five-minute boat ride, we arrived at the island. It felt more like a private beach connected to the mainland rather than an island. Unfortunately, due to the bad weather, I couldn't go into the sea... I'll try again for a rematch.

チケットのみの購入で、レンタカーで行きました。
以前乗馬したので、今回はシークレットアイランドへ。
船に乗って５分ほどで島？に到着。島とゆうよりか陸続きの貸し切りビーチといった感じです。あいにくの天気で海に入れず・・・またリベンジします

So much fun! We did the extreme package and I wish we had more time in the air. So recommend doing the top package. The guys running the boat were fun and very friendly.

The weather was really nice and pleasant. We went higher than I expected, so it might be a bit scary for those with a fear of heights. Also, the boat was rocking quite a bit, and there were some people who got seasick.

すごくいい天気で気持ちよかった。思ったより高いところまで上がったので高所恐怖症の人はちょっと怖いかも。あと、けっこう船が揺れて船酔いしている人もいた。

Very fascinating and informative--too much to see in a day--we did the Bowfin submarine & submarine museum, the Arizona memorial, the outdoor exhibits, and the Missouri short-tour. would have liked the longer tour and completely missed the Pacific Air museum. could have used another half-day. exhibits and guides were great.

I did it at the beach near the zoo. It was my first time, but I was able to stand up. It was so much fun that I decided to do it again on-site. Next time, I want to try it at the big waves on the North Shore.

動物園の前辺りのビーチでやりました。初めてでしたが立てるようになりました。楽しかったので現地で追加してやりました。次回は波の大きいノースショアでやりたいです。

It's a very good program where you can interact with dolphins. My daughter was also very happy. However, I had a hard time killing time until the bus back. It feels more like a small aquarium aside from the dolphins. It might be better to arrange your own transportation.

イルカと触れ合いができる非常に良いプログラムです。
娘も大喜びでした。 ただ、帰路のバスまでの時間を潰すのに難儀しました。 イルカ以外は小規模な水族園というかんじですので。
足は自分で手配しても良いかもしれません。

Last time, we participated in a horseback riding tour in the forest with my child, and we were very satisfied. This time, during the horseback riding experience by the beach, we enjoyed riding while gazing at the beautiful sea. We created another wonderful memory. Before the experience, we leisurely enjoyed a garlic shrimp bento for lunch and took a little stroll around the town of Haleiwa, making for a very fulfilling day. I would love to participate in this tour again.

前回は親子で森の中を乗馬するツアーに参加せて頂きましたが、その時も大満足
でしたが、今回は海辺での乗馬体験のツアーでは、綺麗な海を眺めながら、乗馬を楽しむ事が出来ました。
また最高の思い出が出来ました。体験の前にはランチでガーリックシュリンプのお弁当をのんびり食べたり、ハレイワの町を少し散策したり、とっても充実した内容でした。またこのツアーに参加させて頂きたいと思います。

My 15 year daughter wanted to ride a horse for the first time in Hawaii on the beach. Our experience here was fantastic! Our tour guide was patient and very willing to teach her how to ride. The scenery was beautiful!! I would highly recommend this trip!

More Fun, affordable price, friendly people, and best provider of Parasail in Honolulu.

We participated with our 13-year-old and 11-year-old children. We made a reservation online from Japan and had no idea what to expect. However, a car picked us up at the hotel and took us to the port, where we boarded the boat right away. We joined other foreigners who had signed up directly on-site and took off as parent-child pairs. Once the boat moved out to sea, we put on life jackets and strapped on the equipment, then soared into the sky all at once. The thrill was incredible! We floated in the air for about five minutes, and as we were being lowered while the rope was reeled in, we landed back on the boat. I was amazed at how easily we could fly! The kids enjoyed it very much and weren't scared at all.

１３才と１１才の子供と４人で参加しました。日本からネットで予約して参加しました。どんな感じか全く想像できませんでしたが、ホテルまで車で迎えがあり、港まで連れて行ってくれて、すぐにボートに乗船しました。現地で、直接申込みしている外人さん達と一緒に乗船し、親子ペアで最初に飛びました。船が沖まで進むと、ライフジャケットを着て器具を装着し、一気に上空へ飛び上がりました。その快感は最高でした！上空で５分ほど空中をふわふわし、ロープを巻き取られながら下降してボートへ着地。こんなに簡単に飛べるんだ〜〜と驚きでした。子供たちも怖がることなく、とっても楽しめて気に入っていました。

We were on the boat with a family when it suddenly started having issues, so we had to turn back. We had signed up for morning activities, but we decided to come back in the afternoon. They apologized and raised the height for each of us by one level. They also took about 130 photos for $30 and gave us an SD card to take home. It was really refreshing. The creaking of the hardware added to the thrill!

私たちと一緒に乗り合わせた家族が終わったところで、船の調子がおかしく引き返すことになりました。午前中のアクティビティに申し込んでたのですが、午後から出直すことになりました。悪いねと高さもそれぞれ１つずつUPしてくれました。写真も＄３０で１３０枚ぐらいとってくれ、帰りにSDカードでくれました。とっても爽快です。金具がみしみし言うのはスリル度UPです。

I heard there would be an English instructor, and since it was in Hawaii, I thought it would be an instructor who could speak Japanese for the Japanese customers... but the person I rode with was American. Most of the staff spoke only English... but we managed somehow.
It was refreshing to soar up into the sky and look down at the ocean!

英語のインストラクターがつくとあったのですが、ハワイなので日本人のお客に結構日本語も話せるインストラクターの方だと思ったら・・・一緒に乗り合わせたのはアメリカ人。スタッフの方もほとんど英語オンリー・・・でも、なんとかなりました。
ぐんぐん空に上がって空から見下ろす海は爽快でした！

Great trip. Up close to many sea turtles and great visibility.

This is my first time doing parasailing with a fear of height, so it is almost like a mission impossible, therefore, I chose the lowest height which is 300 feet. it turned out it was not scary at all, I thought i would felt uncomfortable when they lifted us up from the boat, but I didn't. it was very stable when we were up to the sky flying. When we came back, it was not like we were dropped to the water, we landed back on the boat. So for those who thought you would be dropped into water, that is not going to happen. So try this one, I recommend it to anyone who would like a great view of waikiki beach in the sky.
